Eminem Admits Bruno Stunt Was Staged

While it was highly speculated that the now-infamous incident featuring Sacha Baron Cohen’s Bruno falling ass-first into Eminem at this year’s MTV Move Awards was premeditated, Eminem has finally admitted as such.

“Sacha [Baron Cohen] called me when we were in Europe and he had an idea to do something outrageous at the Movie Awards,” he told RapRadar.com. “I’m a big fan of his work so I agreed to get involved with the gag.”

Apparently the MC was more than happy with the stunt’s result.

“I’m thrilled that we pulled this off better than we rehearsed it,” Eminem said. “It had so many people going “nuts” so to speak. Everyone was blowing me up about it.

“After the ceremony I went back to my hotel and laughed uncontrollably for about 3 hours. Especially after I saw it on air.”
